My alarm didn't go off this morning at 4:50. I guess my cleaning people messed it up. Usually, I mean, almost every day, I get up well before my alarm goes off, but today I didn't. I had 20 minutes to get dressed and drive to boot camp, and I just couldn't. Instead, I stayed in bed until 5:30 and got up, went up to my home gym, which rarely gets used in the warm weather. I did a 5 minute treadmill warm up, then all 3 sets of the Graham Street Body Weight Conditioning program. Then I did 2 minutes of jacks and a stretch.

I was so bad when I was home, though much better than I could have been. Unsure about other parts of the country but in the south when people give food to someone with a death in the family they pretty much focus on sweets. I don't mean cookies either, I mean huge decadent homemade things dripping with chocolate and other good things. One aunt brought a carmalised pineapple upside down cake that was to die for. I didn't succumb to temptation much - and I've not had a grain in over a year. One day I allowed myself a couple of small treats and my body wasn't happy with me. Lesson learned!

Yesterday:
B: eggs scrambled with baby greens, a bit of braised pulled brisket, coffee
1 hour group training followed by protein shake
L: frittata with small salad, banana
D: not much outside of some brisket and later a tablespoon of almond butter/raisins mixed (stuff is like crack) I need to do better today!
